@ScotGovJustice @TheSCCJR @UofGSPS @UofGSocSci The @UofGSPS #RecoveringCommunity podcast was made by the talented @freyahel. She did an amazing job of editing our conversation into a coherent narrative, that really did justice to the wonderful work of @JimThom61540525 @SimonCommScot and the @rvv_study.

Working w yp who have been involved in violence, they are not doing it for likes, they are not doing it bcos song lyrics, they are not doing it because they do not fear the consequences. Their lives are full of fear. Immediate fear, fear for their future, fear deep inside them.

[Fern Gillon @fgillo10]

If we want to stop young people becoming victims of violence we need to look at the causes of that violence.

[Fern Gillon @fgillo10]

It is easier to punish than look at the complex and multifaceted issues that are contributing to these behaviours. Addressing needs is not in lieu of taking responsibility or making amends but we need to acknowledge that often the causes lie outwith young peoples control

[Fern Gillon @fgillo10]

🧵 it is unbelievably upsetting to see yp be victims of such violence, and similarly to think about the suffering yp must be experiencing to be involved in such violence. That is telling us ALL they are in need- of connection, support, that something is going wrong…

Young people affected by violence have told researchers they want safe spaces re-instated in their communities.

Thanks to @pauline4glasgow for asking a question based on the @rvv_study at today's FMQs, highlighting the link between repeat violence and poverty - as well as the crucial support provided by community-based organisations led by people with lived experience.
